It’s been over a year in the planning and execution but JustGiving have this week launched their data Api’s. This allows all of your JustGiving reporting data to be surfaced through api calls.

JustGiving’s open platform allows any third party to develop new tools using its fundraising and reporting technology. There is a clear demand from charities wanting to connect JustGiving with their fundraising database. Earlier this year, 61% of charities surveyed by JustGiving reported an interest in achieving this.

Justgiving has unveiled a new online platform for staff fundraising in a move the fundraising organisation predicts will boost company fundraising.

The company fundraising ‘tool’ sits within the Justgiving site, but is entirely branded by the company taking part. Employees can create profiles, teams and events from which they can raise money and the site ranks the most successful in each category. The site features a running total of staff fundraising, which companies will be able to match and will enable companies and their staff to support multiple charities.Civilsociety.co.uk first reported this service was in beta testing in April this year, with about 20 companies using the service in trial stage, but this morning Justgiving launched the service in full to other companies alongside a couple of the early adopters, Barclays and John Lewis.
